Radar Recognition-Aided Searches
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving, from a computing device, a search request having a search query;
recognizing a gesture received through a radar-based recognition system;
determining information about the gesture that is relevant to the search request;
causing a search to be performed using the search query and the determined information; and
providing information responsive to the search request.

Abstract
This document describes techniques and devices for a radar recognition-aided search. Through use of a radar-based recognition system, gestures made by, and physiological information about, persons can be determined. In the case of physiological information, the techniques can use this information to refine a search. For example, if a person requests a search for a coffee shop, the techniques may refine the search to coffee shops in the direction that the person is walking. In the case of a gesture, the techniques may refine or base a search solely on the gesture. Thus, a search for information about a store, car, or tree can be made responsive to a gesture pointing at the store, car, or tree with or without explicit entry of a search query.

12. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
receiving an indication that a person is requesting a search; recognizing a gesture received through a radar-based recognition system; determining information about the gesture sufficient to perform a search; performing, or causing performance of, the requested search using the determined information; and providing the search results resulting from performing the requested search using the determined information. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A computer-implemented method comprising:
-
receiving, from an input device, a search request having a search query; determining, through a radar-based recognition system, physiological information about a person associated with the input device; performing, or causing performance of, the requested search using the search query and the determined physiological information about the person; and providing the search results resulting from performing the requested search using the search query and the determined physiological information. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
